Semiautomatic rifles fire one round with each trigger pull and automatically load the next round.
They are widely used for target shooting, competition, varmint control and some types of hunting. Many feature adjustable stocks and rails for optics, making them easy to fit to different shooters.
Pin Tip
Know your state rules. Some states and localities regulate certain semiautomatic rifles, magazines or features.
Hunting Rules Vary
Many states limit magazine capacity or the types of rifles allowed for hunting particular game, so check your wildlife agency regulations each season.
Safety and Training
New owners should take a certified firearm safety course, buy only from a federally licensed dealer and check current state and local laws before buying, carrying or transporting any firearm. Local ranges and hunter education programs are great places to learn safely.
